Landing Fees

Certain airstrips, private properties, or facilities charge landing/parking fees passed directly to clients. National parks often include entry or conservation fees for landings inside boundaries.

Remote bush landings usually incur no fee unless specific site requirements exist.

Waiting Time Charges

Brief stops (15-30 minutes) for passenger drop-off/pick-up typically included. Extended waiting (e.g., full-day ground activities) billed at reduced hourly rate to cover crew and aircraft availability.

Overnight waits include crew accommodation and positioning if required.

Other Potential Extras

Repositioning flights to/from your start point if outside base. Special requests like catering, ground transport coordination, or doors-off configuration may add minor costs.

Taxes and insurance always included in base rate.

Transparency Commitment

All known fees disclosed upfront in detailed quote. Unexpected charges rare and discussed immediately if arising.

No hidden markups—third-party fees passed at cost.

How to Plan Costs

Provide full itinerary details when requesting quote for accurate inclusion of any extras. Ask for breakdown to understand each component.

Bundle multi-stop or full-day packages often reduce overall additional fees.
